Pulled this one out for the christmas season and it turned out realy nice. Its a unicorn face portrait style, the kind where you just see the head from the front with that tall twisted horn going straight up. The horn's done in satin stitch using orange thread with a two-tone spiralling effect, and it sits right above a proper holly sprig. its one of the builds that doesnt need alot of explanation. Dark green leaves, 2 round red berries, the whole thing hooped right at the base of the horn between the ears.
And the ears. The ear tufts are big and swept outward in black with red satin fill inside, kinda like wings almost. Theres 4 orange star clusters at the temples, two on each side, which give it that extra holiday sparkle without overdoing it. Long black curling lashes underneath. The face area itself stays white so you get a nice contrast on darker fabrics, just keep that in mind when you're picking your stabiliser.
4 colours total: Black, Orange, Red, Dark Green. Five sizes from 3.45 inches up to 7.39 inches wide, stitch counts go from 6,085 at the smallest up to 16,917 at the largest. Digitising handled in my embroidery software. Use cutaway stabiliser on knits, medium-weight tearaway works fine on wovens. Avoid stretchy velvet unless you add a topping layer. One customer grabbed the 5-inch version for a kids christmas stocking last december and it came out gorgeous. Stitch it on cream fleece and you wont regret it. Holler if you run into any issues with the file.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
